    Somewhat related but does anyone know the backstory on the linuxsucks guy? He’s the sole poster in that community and has a massive rage boner for Linux but seems to know way too much about it?

      Man, idk, but I think the guy is also the one running the Reddit community by the same name. The usernames are different, but the Reddit sidebar links to the Lemmy community and the description and rules are almost word for word.

      Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but anyone who promotes telemetry as some sort of good thing and hates on makes it their life’s work to dissuade people from Linux is either someone with too much time of their hands or an op.

        That was my suspicion too but sometimes people just have hate boners for things like an autistic fixation on hating something. A good example is that CPU benchmark website where the owner has a rock hard hate boner for AMD no matter how well they do. When they kicked the crap out of Intel they used every disingenuous reason to score it lower because Intel should always be better.
